CVE-2026-32761: File Browser has an Authorization Policy Bypass in Public Share Download Flow

March 18, 2026 (updated March 20, 2026)

A permission enforcement flaw allows users without download privileges (download=false) to still expose and retrieve file content via public share links when they retain share privileges (share=true). This bypasses intended access control policy and enables unauthorized data exfiltration to unauthenticated users. Where download restrictions are used for data-loss prevention or role separation.
